For many years now I have felt frustrated that the Bookmarks Library search feature doesn't have a field that allows you to tell where bookmarks are located within the bookmark file structure. You know, that bar in the right pane, above the list of bookmarks for a selected folder...where you can select to show "Name," "Tags," "Location," etc.? Well, there ought to be one for bookmark's physical location in the file structure. So, you know, when i search for a bookmark i know i have, i can note where it's located and then move it to a more appropriate location, or whatever.

How about mouse to the top of the Browser and Right Click then Click Menu Bar then Bookmarks then Search Bookmarks

You can make Folders and or Drag by mouse the Bookmarks to where you want them. You can Organize with Views, multiple ways.

Export as HTML https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/export-firefox-bookmarks-to-backup-or-transfer and use a Web Editor to change it up.

Location of Bookmarks will not help you as they are in your Profile in compressed java file. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-where-firefox-stores-user-data

Copy/Paste Bookmarks into the Search Bar on this URL. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/extensions/
